Commercial Avionics Systems – Growing in Demand of Real Time Data

The increasing air traffic and need for modernization of avionics
systems to improve aircraft efficiency is driving the growth of the
commercial avionics systems market globally. The growing demand for
real time data acts as the prime driving factor for the growth of the
commercial avionics systems. In addition, the demand for in-flight
entertainment and connectivity for crews and passengers in growing
worldwide, this is currently boosting the market for avionics in
commercial airlines globally. Increasing investments for the adoption
of advanced technology in order to develop enhanced avionics systems
is also a prime factor of growth for the commercial avionics systems.
Along with the forward-fit avionics for new aircrafts, the demand for
retrofit avionics systems in old aircrafts is also increasing
significantly among the major airlines, globally. Owing to the
abovementioned factors, the global market for commercial avionics
systems is growing at a significant pace.

Based on segmentation by systems, the global commercial avionics
systems market has been segmented into: integrated modular avionics,
cockpit systems, cabin systems, navigation systems, communication
systems, surveillance systems, flight control and emergency systems,
electrical systems, central maintenance systems and avionics full
duplex switched Ethernet among others. These systems operate under
the control of the pilots and also in support of the ground based Air
Traffic Control (ATC) to ensure maximum safety of aircrafts during
flights.

The demand for communication systems segment is increasing globally
at a high pace owing to their importance of enhanced connectivity
between the aircraft and the air traffic control, as well as other
aircrafts in air. Additionally, the integrated modular avionics and
central maintenance systems are gaining importance among the airlines
companies, owing to the requirement to ensure maximum efficiency and
safety. Similarly, the segmentation based on aircraft type includes,
fixed wings and rotary wings. The demand for avionics systems in the
fixed wing aircrafts segment is estimated to be leading with the
largest market share over the forecast period. However, the demand
for avionics systems in rotary wings is also expected to grow
considerably over the forecast period.

On the basis of geographical segmentation, the global market for
commercial avionics systems has been segmented into North America,
Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest of the World (RoW). The RoW region
comprises of Middle East and Africa (MEA) and South America. North
America accounted to be the largest market for commercial avionics
systems and is expected to continue its dominance throughout the
forecast period from 2015 to 2021. Following North America, the
commercial avionics market in Europe accounted for a significant
market share in 2014 and is expected to maintain steady growth over
the forecast period. However, Asia Pacific is estimated to be the
fastest growing region in the commercial avionics systems market from
2015 to 2021. The countries such as China, India, Japan, South Korea
and others are boosting the market demand for commercial avionics in
the region.

The Rest of the World (RoW) region is currently growing a sluggish
pace; however, the market for commercial avionics systems is expected
to grow over the forecast period owing to the increasing air traffic
in the region. The countries in Middle East are expected to offer
growth opportunities for the commercial avionics systems market over
the forecast period, owing to the increasing modernization and
upgradation initiative being undertaken in the region. The report
includes the market revenue of commercial avionics systems in 11
leading countries worldwide.
